The problem
On certain travel trailers, the certification label located on the road- side front bottom corner of the outside of the trailer is incorrect. The tire cold inflation pressure is incorrectly stated.
The risk
Under inflation of the tires can lead to rapid tire wear and premature failure that could result in a loss of control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Skyline will mail replacement labels. The recall began on june 8, 2005. Owners may contact skyline at 1-800-929-1080.
